" We visited Takara last week and it was a fabulous experience! The sushi is fresh and beautifully presented, with flavors that take you back to Japan. We also tried some tempura, which was perfectly crispy and delicious. The service was friendly though a bit scattered, but overall we left very satisfied. I can’t wait to return to sample more from their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Takara after hearing rave reviews, and it certainly did not disappoint. The sushi had a delicate balance of flavors that truly feels authentic. The atmosphere was relaxing, with gentle music playing in the background. The staff were attentive yet not overbearing, making the evening enjoyable. Although it’s pricier than some places, it’s worth every penny. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to Takara multiple times now, and the experience is always a bit hit or miss. Their specialty rolls are often amazing, rich in flavors and textures. However, I had one visit where the sushi felt rushed, lacking the care you typically expect. The service can be slow when they have a full house, but when they are on their game, it’s fantastic. The atmosphere is cozy, making it a nice place to bring friends or a date. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a bento box for lunch, which was a mix of sushi, tempura, and teriyaki chicken. Overall, it was a decent meal and the flavors were good, but I found the sushi a bit loose and not as tightly rolled as I prefer. The tempura was crispy, but I think my expectations were set too high given their reputation. The service was friendly, and the place was quiet. I might give it another shot for dinner sometime. " (*Curated Review*)

" I didn't go with high expectations but Takara blew me away! The chef’s choices were spot-on, with every dish boasting fresh ingredients and delightful flavors. The atmosphere is lovely—calm and relaxing. It's those subtle details that make dining here a treat. Also, the portion sizes were generous, making it great value. Highly recommend the special sushi platter! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has brought back my love for sushi! After one meal, I'm hooked. The freshness of the fish exceeded my expectations, especially the salmon which was like butter. The service was attentive, and though the prices are a tad high, the quality justifies it. The traditional decor adds to the experience, making me feel like I'm actually in Japan. I will surely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for genuine Japanese sushi, look no further than Takara. The moment I stepped inside, I was captivated by its serene atmosphere. The chef truly knows his craft; each sushi roll is a work of art, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The service was impeccable, making me feel welcomed and valued. This is definitely going to be my go-to spot in Montreal! " (*Curated Review*)
